Mid-Week "C-YA Sweet Moment"
As April and I are on vacation this week here in the desert in Indio, I'm reminded of 2 major elements one might experience while in a desert. These elements are both heat and dryness... The effects physically on the body due to these elements can result in weariness and thirst...
When you or I are going through a desert in our walks, the enemy will turn up the heat in our lives to discourage us and cause us to fall...We also wander from God and are far from his Holy Spirit leaving us spiritually dry and barren of any fruit or life...Because of these elements the results will cause us to be tired and weary and thirsty for some kind of relief! Usually in a literal desert we relieve this weariness and thirst with water! Spiritually some will relieve their thirst with sin and pleasures!
Jesus told the women at the well that he offered living water and in John 4:14 Jesus said "but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst." Are you in a desert place as you read this? Are you dry and over exhausted because you've been operating in your own strength and power? Do you thirst to turn back to God and his living water, his quench, his relief? Don't go and drink of the water that this world and your flesh desires, but drink that water that only God can provide through his word so you will thirst no more!
Love you guys! KC
